Thanks AC for finding this , and agree Louise, that it is good to see Anna performing with some respected figures of the music world. I see it is directed by Toni Visconti, hope he notices Anna , he would be a great producer for her albums .

Agree with you both, Michael and dogandclowns, as sad as the cause of this tribute show may be, but hopefully it will open some new doors for Anna.I'm sure Amanda Palmer became aware of her through the "Lady Grinning Soul"-video on youtube, she mentioned it on her Twitter.

annnnnd he boffed up strange weather really badly. she was badass and i feel like amanda's fans will really appreciate her art. david shouldn't have been up there and i'm always the one who sticks up for him but bahhh. not tonight. do you reckon he was drunk?

but john cameron mitchell straight up called her a "genius from england" which makes my little hedwig loving heart so full and happy.

Yes I agree that bloody David Byrne completely ruined Anna ,s set. Anna had a good chance to play before a new audience, and she should not have had to put up with this idiot who cannot sing. I felt very sorry for Anna tonight, she did not deserve that !
